Nick Leahy '17 Recruiting Profile

Hello

I am a 6`0 foot, 275 pound starting DT/OT at Brewster High School in Brewster, New York. It is a dream of mine to play competitive college football.  Football is my passion.

My 4 year GPA is approximately a 2.5 but has steadily improved year over year since my freshman year.  

While I play DT/OT I consider myself to be a very coach-able player and open to play any position that my coaches ask me to play. I am a leader on and off the field as I have led community events and earned Co-Captain honors in my Junior year, as well as Captain this past year. I make sure we never lose the intensity and focus in giving back to the community that supports us and ensuring that we are playing smart and playing hard on the field.

In the weight room my current numbers are; bench 365, squat 500, dead lift 565.

I finished my sophomore season with 21 total tackles, 2 sacks and 1 fumble recovery.

I  finished my junior year as Co-Captain with 67 total tackles (21 solo), 3.5 sacks, and 1 forced fumble  which resulted in a team award of "Best Defensive Lineman" and All-League honors. I also had the opportunity to play a little blocking fullback.

I just finished my senior season as a Captain. I had 48 total tackles, 3 sacks, 1 caused fumble, and 2 fumble recoveries. I was awarded team "Defensive MVP", earned All- League and All- Section honors and was awarded the "Section One Football Coaches Association Outstanding Defensive Lineman". I also earned the honor of playing for (and starting at DT) in the "Section One Exceptional Senior Football Game" (All-star Game) (which we won!)  I have made 3rd team All State honors as well.

I have attended several football camps over the past two summers including Ohio State University, Pace University, Coastal Carolina University, Springfield College and the Blue Chip Football Academy at Dean College where I earned the "Outstanding Lineman Performance" award out of more than 50 competitors from multiple states. I am always looking to improve in everything I do!
